If you read it on any 'rumors' site, take it with a grain of salt. I'm sure the Kings would be interested in trading for OV, and I'm sure there are 28 other teams that would be interested too. With his contract, the Capitals might even consider it..... but I can't imagine they'd actually deal him. Not without another couple of sub-par seasons, anyway.

Most of those sites write what they do for the sole purpose of getting hits for their site.

Just like the recent article - I think it was The Hockey News actually - that wrote a column on Ryan Miller. The headline read "Miller's days in Buffalo numbered." and the last paragraph ended with "it might be this trade deadline, it might be the offseason, or it might be next year, but Miller's days in Buffalo are numbered." Technically speaking, my days in Buffalo are numbered, because I'll inevitably either move or die.

I put no stock whatsoever in trade rumors anymore. None of the 'experts' or 'anonymous sources' ever really have that much connection into what's actually going on. Right now someone is patting themselves on the back because they predicted that Brendan Morrow would be traded, and he was. But when you opine that practically every guy on their last year or two of a UFA contract is going to be traded to any one of the 25ish teams not eliminated from the playoffs, you're bound to get a couple of them right.
